That was so nice of her to do that for you. My husband and I used to come to Monticello to race horse's. It has changed over the years.

Bless your heart for this project. It is so nice to think of all the children who will benefit from this as well as parents. Loved the write up about you in the paper. June/Mo

Well in the afternoon of the article appearing in the paper -- I received several e-mails. One was from a Fabric Designer, who unbeknownst to me, lives a short distance from me. She donated all of her 2 yard samples that the fabric company sends her to me for future Quilts for Kids. Three plastic tubs full -- how awesome!!! Now to get off this quilting board and get sewing!
I saw the article in my local paper!!!Great job!!
